Synopsis

This concise and accessible essay offers a fresh perspective that acknowledges the empowering role religion can play in a woman's life, while exploring meaningful ways to reconcile gender equality with freedom of religion. Dania skillfully weaves together legal analysis, feminist theology and sociological studies and analyses legal challenges in terms of the necessary balance between protecting women's rights and religious freedom. She draws on the work of postcolonial feminist theologians who explore how religious texts have been reinterpreted to be more inclusive of women. She shows the positive impact of faith-based communities within western societies, especially the social integration of immigrant communities that fight biases and prejudices against religious minorities and religious women. Originally published in French by Éditions du Remue-Menage.
